Description
XTP Extended Length Butt Cap is the latest in customising your racquet to a longer length, no matter which brand. Weighing 8g, it weighs the same as a standard size butt cap.
The standard length of most racquets is 27 inches, however, many of the professional players have stretched racquets, making the length of their racquets 27.5 inches. Some of the racquet manufacturers do offer stretch versions of their racquets:
Head - MXG7
Wilson - Pro Staff Six.One Stretch Plus, Team 105XL and Hyper Five.Three
Prince - Graphite Long Body
Yonex - Pro RD
Babolat - Max Drive and Aero 112
The main advantages of longer length racquets include more power to serves and added reach.
You too can also increase the length of your racquet now, by simply remove the existing butt cap and installing the XTP.
